Why choose aluminium?

Aesthetically-pleasing

Aluminium is versatile and attractive, with it's distinctive style, slim frames, and appearance that compliments both traditional and contemporary designs. Aluminium frames are up to 50% slimmer than PVCu frames, maximising the amount of natural light able to enter your home, due to the increased ratio of glass to frame. REAL aluminium lantern rooflights have 4 panes of glass with no boss and hood. Therefore, in addition to the slim internal sightlines and low external sightlines, your lantern will create fantastic views all year round.

Aluminium is far stronger than PVCu, and therefore doesn't require reinforcement. REAL aluminium lantern rooflights have superior strength. Additionally, aluminium is extremely durable, meaning your products will function as you'd expect over many, many years. Aluminium is the first choice for architects that require longevity, performance, and value for money. These aluminium lanterns have been tested to wind pressure of up to 1.32 KNm-2, and has a pressure plated system for extra security.

Ease of maintenance

REAL aluminium lantern rooflights are virtually maintenance-free. Your lantern will only require occasional cleaning due to the modern, powder-coated finish, which is extremely hard-wearing.

Environmentally-friendly

Aluminium uses just 5% of the total energy needed to produce frames from scratch - it is infinitely recyclable.

Thermally efficient

REAL aluminium lantern rooflights exceed the energy performance requirements of current building regulations.
